2425. Chapter 2425 The mystery of Xiao Xian's life experience [39]
She had already checked and found that the cause of Prince Yan's death was very simple. There was no doubt about it, and there was no need to make such a big fuss. The murderer could be found by just searching in the mansion.
But this murderer is just on the surface. Where is the real murderer behind the scenes?
These servants would never have the guts to poison their master for no reason. It must be because of what she and Prince Yan requested.
So what does this person mean?
Prince Yan is not allowed to tell the truth?
I'm afraid Li Shaoyin and Yang Shaoqing won't know this.
Soon, the officers brought over the coachman Yuan Da and the two cooks.
One of the two cooks is a fat aunt and the other is a big-footed woman. Everyone calls them that and they are used to it.
They were originally cooks with average skills, but then the government's finances became tight, and Prince Yan sold the ones with good cooking skills for money, leaving these two as the only ones that no one wanted.
These two people can't cook any big meals. They just make a few home-cooked dishes and a few ordinary snacks every time.
They are afraid that the master will beat, scold and punish them at every turn, and even more afraid of deducting money, so they are trembling with fear every day. When cooking, they must be careful and careful. The taste may not be good, but it is absolutely clean!
They kept kowtowing, saying that they were wronged and that they were only responsible for making snacks and did nothing else.
When they shouted like this, Yuan Da, the coachman over there, became unhappy.
The fat aunt suddenly turned her head and pointed at the coachman and shouted: "It must be him, it's Yuan Da. He sent the snacks. He must have poisoned them."
Yuan Da was so frightened that he started kowtowing, "It's not fair, it's not fair, the little one just came to the kitchen to see what was available, but the big-footed woman insisted that I bring snacks to the master. I know that I can only help them with their work.
There was food, so I went. After I delivered it, I left without knowing anything else. Our master is so tidy that even if we went to deliver snacks, they would be packed in food boxes and we were not allowed to touch them.
Yes, the villain is really innocent. He has never opened the food box. Please let the adults make the decision!"
Yuan Dasheng was afraid of being blamed, so he kowtowed to show his innocence.
It's really difficult to handle this time. No one admits it, and no one has a chance...
Yang Shaoqing slapped the table and said, "You still want to make excuses. It's obvious that you jointly carried out the murder and wanted to come up with a law that will not punish everyone. Come on, you will be served with a severe punishment. I don't believe that you still dare to speak harshly under a severe punishment."
Over there, Li Shaoyin immediately stopped him, "Yang Shaoqing, isn't this inappropriate? Isn't it a bit too much to start punishing someone without any evidence? Isn't this a sign of surrender?"
The three people kneeling below immediately shouted that they were wronged and that they definitely did not commit murder.
Yang Shaoqing glared at him angrily, "Li Shaoyin, what do you mean?"
Li Shaoyin stood up and cupped his hands towards Shen Mingzhu who was standing aside, "Do you have any good ideas, Princess? Please give me some advice, Princess."
Shen Mingzhu said calmly: "It's nothing, it's just that everything happens for a reason. Even if they want to poison the king, what are their motives? After poisoning the king, if the incident happens, they will be punished with death. If nothing happens,
, the outcome may be even worse. If they don’t have a master, then the assets of the county prince’s palace will be confiscated. If they are confiscated, they will be expropriated and become military households. I’m afraid they would rather be servants in the county prince’s palace.”
